WHITE NOISE INSANITY

Yes the Virginia Governor went to the GOPer, but the brain dead corporate owned MSM (and the reich wing knuckle draggers) are totally ignoring a real historical fact, since 1978, the party winning the previous presidential election loses the governors house;

John N. Dalton, January 14, 1978, January 16, 1982, Republican, (Jimmy Carter had won the white house)

Chuck Robb, January 16, 1982, January 18, 1986, Democratic (Ronald Reagan had won the white house)

Gerald L. Baliles, January 18, 1986, January 14, 1990< , Democratic (Ronald Reagan had won the white house)

Douglas Wilder, January 14, 1990, January 15, 1994, Democratic, (George H W Bush had won the white house)

George Allen , January 15, 1994, January 17, 1998, Republican, (Bill Clinton had won the white house)

Jim Gilmore, January 17, 1998, January 12, 2002, Republican, (Bill Clinton had won the white house)

Mark Warner, January 12, 2002, January 14, 2006, Democratic, (George W Bush had won the white house)

Tim Kaine, January 14, 2006, Incumbent, Democratic, (George W Bush had won the white house)

Bob McDonnell, January 2010, Governor-Elect, Republican, (Barack Obama had won the white house)

and Deeds sucked as a campaigner.

In New Jersey, Corzine forgot he wasn’t still the head of Goldman Sachs. So you had a rich Democrat who thought he could buy what he wanted and a corrupt Republican, and the voters (who turned out) went with corruption over greed this time. BTW New Jersey has had a Republican Governor for 16 of the past 28 years, and has a similar trend to Virginia, picking an opposite party to the white house for their governor (Va nine election cycles, NJ six election cycles).. Wanna bet the GOPer corrupt crook don’t get reelected?

End of GOPer victory dance, plain and simple. PS both the GOPers, in Va and NJ didn’t want the fat drug addicted bloviater nor the wasilla hill billy campaignin’ fur them ….. (they both tried to MODERATE their positions to win votes)

The place the idiots brigade did stick their ignorant noses in?

In the 23rd congressional race, the democratic candidate won for the first time since 1871,

YES, I said 1871 … (138 years).

Way to go teabaggers, dumb Alaskan quitters, astroturf clowns ……..

Good try at retaking congress by handing a seat safe for well over a century to the democratic party.

Keep up the good work people, maybe you’ll eventually elect enough democrats with your brain dead screeching and lying, the democrats will finally realize the country in rejecting you time and time again.

In California, a progressive democrat won. A seat that used to be middle of the road, trading from centrist republican to centrist democrat, went to a openly progressive individual, so the blue dogs lost another one in the house, let alone the teabaggers wet dreams slippin’ away.

As for the ballot initiative #1 in Maine hard loss, but things weren’t all bad everywhere.

In Chapel Hill, North Carolina the people elected an openly gay mayor,

Yes, I said Chapel Hill, NORTH CAROLINA, in the heart of the supposed bible belt ……. doesn’t portent well for the hate mongers beating on their bibles does it?

As Grant has informed us, Houston, Texas saw an openly gay women come in first in their mayoral election (there will be a runoff).

In Canton, Ohio, a gay activist Eric Resnick won a seat on the Board of Education. (Oh my god, the fundies will go apeshit won’t they?)

Kalamazoo, Michigan passed an anti-discrimination measure that protects people from discrimination based on sexual orientation.

The biggest news, is Washington State voters approved their referendum 71, basically the opposite of the Maine decision. The fundie attempt to block the civil rights of American citizens lost in Washington.

So while the GOPers will be very shrill claiming they have turned things around their victories are hollow, and fleeting.

The governors races they are touting historically they should have won, (especially in VA) the congressional races in NY and CA are real loses for them. And openly gay candidates winning in North Carolina and Texas says the voters don’t always accept the hate filled fundies screeching ……

Because in referendums about taxes, w-e-l-l-l-l, the teabaggers got their asses handed to them;

In Maine they lost ;

Question 2 (Citizen Initiative): “Do you want to cut the rate of the municipal excise tax by an average of 55% on motor vehicles less than six years old and exempt hybrid and other alternative-energy and highly fuel-efficient motor vehicles from sales tax and three years of excise tax?” FAILED

Question 4 (Citizen Initiative): “Do you want to change the existing formulas that limit state and local government spending and require voter approval by referendum for spending over those limits and for increases in state taxes?” FAILED

Question 5 (Citizen Initiative): “Do you want to change the medical marijuana laws to allow treatment of more medical conditions and to create a regulated system of distribution?” PASSED

Question 6 (Bond Issue): “Do you favor a $71,250,000 bond issue for improvements to highways and bridges, airports, public transit facilities, ferry and port facilities, including port and harbor structures, as well as funds for the LifeFlight Foundation that will make the State eligible for over $148,000,000 in federal and other matching funds?” PASSED

No so good fur the tea baggers was it?

Washington State also roundly rejected I-1033 (This measure would limit growth in state revenues deposited in funds subject to the state expenditure limit, and limit growth in county and city revenues deposited into the county and city current expense funds. The limit would be adjusted based on annual growth in inflation and population. The limit also would apply to revenues transferred out of these funds. The limit would exclude voter-approved revenue increases. Revenues above the limit would reduce property tax levies. Should this measure be enacted into law?)

All in all not the defeat the corporate owned MSM or dumb as dirt teabaggers claim it is.

Here’s hopin’ the stupid reich wing teabaggers and their astroturf greedy manipulators keep rippin’ the republiscum party apart trying to get Real Republiscum, not RINO’s elected, it worked real good this time. (IE New York State has two republican members of congress, New England has NO members of Congress from the party of NO, and according to the clowns running the show fur the teabaggers, just two RINOs in the senate. Hope they keep a drivin’ the RINO’s out helps the rest of the country cause they keep losing when they do.
